Falling: suicide and the sidewalk

Published:10 December 2008Publication History

ABSTRACT

This work comprises a video sequence shot from my sixth-floor apartment window to the sidewalk below and composed inside a digital-game environment. The intention is to empty the video of narrative and reduce it to an image string. Exploring the space, flying over and through the image sequence, the effect turns unsettling and a new narrative emerges.
